Progress on the 1998 NMS
SIGNALLING The signalling renewal scheme in the Guildford area was
substantially completed in December 1998.
Reassessment of the condition of the signalling equipment in the
Portsmouth, Havant, Basingstoke and Farnborough areas has concluded that
resignalling is unnecessary until after 2004. Some investment in life extension of
the existing systems will be undertaken in the short term.
Development of the scheme to renew signalling in the Bournemouth area is
continuing. Work will begin in 1999, with completion due in 2001.
FREIGHT We are is actively supporting Associated British Ports with its
proposed development of a deep-water port at Dibden Bay, which will be linked
with the rail network.
STATIONS A complete refurbishment of Surbiton Station is under way, which is
restoring this station to its former glory. This has led to this station being
awarded Station Regeneration of the Year by the Railway Heritage Trust.
At Clapham Junction, Phase 1 SRP work on the canopies and platforms has
been completed. Phase 2 works, which are due to start in 2000, involve
refurbishment or replacement of the station footbridge.
Work has just begun at Bournemouth Station, where up to £7M will be
spent on the provision on a new station roof to replace the existing badly
damaged structure. The new roof is based on the original William Jacumb design,
amended to comply with modern safety requirements. This work is scheduled for
completion in 2000.
